Donald Trump likes to brag about how luxurious his resorts and properties are. But according to a new report of a lawsuit, he recently complained about the cleanliness conditions at his golf club in New Jersey.

According to The Daily Beast, a lawsuit has been filed by a former manager of the club, who alleged terrible conditions at the club, and that Trump himself complained about it. The former manager claims she was fired for “flagging the dire health violations at the New Jersey club’s clubhouse bistro restaurant.”

“The club had maggots and mold in his favorite self-serve ice cream, while it employed drunk kitchen staff and lecherous managers who drunkenly phoned female wait staff to demand they come to their homes late at night, the lawsuit alleges,” The Beast reported of the lawsuit.

“In one instance, she alleges, several female subordinates received a combined 20 phone calls from intoxicated male managers inviting them to their homes late one night,” the suit said.

The suit was filed in  Monmouth County Superior Court by former manager Janine Sacks, who alleges that she was “wrongly blamed for the state of the kitchen at the Trump National Golf Club while the president’s son, Eric Trump, looked the other way.”

Sacks worked at the club starting in 2023. Per the suit, she was told that an assistant manager at the club had “an issue with women,” and that assistant manager refused to acknowledge her.

She also claimed that when she went to human resources with her complaints, she was called a “miserable person.”
“At the same time, Sacks says she was punished for raising serious food-safety concerns,” The Beast said. “According to the lawsuit, she documented drunk employees, smoking in the kitchen, maggots and mold in the soft-serve machines, and expired food being served to guests. On May 26, 2023, she alleges, the club’s bistro operated for an entire day without running water.”
Earlier this year, Bedminster was cited for 18 health code violations, earning a score of 32 out of 100.

“According to the initial retail food inspection report, nine of the 18 violations were considered critical issues that could pose a serious health risk,” NJBiz.com reported. “Inspectors said the facility was not compliant with many rules regarding how food should be protected from contamination, such as expired milk in refrigerators as well as improperly stored raw meat. These problems were corrected on site, the report showed.”
